♣ 008 || Action - Voice | Farewell to a Friend

[haring_to_go]

[ Liam took his time fishing out his phone, dreading the conversation to come but knowing he had to make it. But, time held for no man and speak up, Liam did with a slight tremor coloring his voice despite how he attempted to iron it out. ] I'm afraid we've been inundated with feathers thanks to Raven's latest molting spree and the desert. If anyone would care to take them off our hands, it should make a very nice pillow at the least. I'm afraid there won't be any more forthcoming, however, but what we have, is yours.

[ He won't even charge for it. It's just... too many reminders of Gilbert. But it wasn't all sadness, he did have one question of wonder to note. ] Also, these creatures, this... half turtle, half duck; what is it and where did they come from? They're really quite friendly, aren't they? [ A regular boon to an aging soul. He should ask Break if they can adopt one. ]

((ooc: Liam is feeding the turtleducks day old bread out by one of the ponds in Xanadu. Feel free to stumble across him if you'd like a more personal conversation with Liam.))

done!

[haring_to_go]

[ ahem ] It's just some bread. Are you here to feed the...ducks as well?

[ He'll share his meager offerings! ]

[baitswitch]

[Ohhhhhh Liam. If only you knew. Your hero worship is sadly misplaced. IN ANY EVENT, Jack cheerfully accepts his portion of the bread and starts tearing it into manageable pieces. He even eats a piece himself.]

My original intent was to find an adventure, but this will more than suffice. I've never seen creatures quite like these before!

[Time to start flinging the bread!]

[ adjkl don't fling the bread! What if Jack were to knock a turtleduck out? :( ]

[haring_to_go]

[ ... HOLD IT IN LIAM ] I haven't either, but the mix is ingenious. [ and cute ]

Do you... often look for adventures? [ what a rare opportunity to dig into the man named Jack. He must remember every single word that is said! ]

[baitswitch]

Hmm, but do turtles and ducks have much in common?

[POOR TURTLEDUCK, WE KNEW YOU WELL. Don't think he doesn't notice your distress, Liam. He will toss the bread instead of flinging it, how's that?]

I'm not one for idleness, you see. Not to mention I'd rather find the adventure before it finds me unprepared.

[haring_to_go]

I suppose they do share a love for water and submerging their heads in it. [ he hadn't thought much of the issue before now. And yes, that's a perfectly good compromise. So long as the turtleduck lives. ]

But have you not heard of the adage: "If you go looking for trouble, you'll find it?" I would think you've had enough adventures to last a life time. [ and he rather wishes it were not the case. ]
